Description

The Malt Miller Brew Day in a box recipe kits have been developed to make brewing with the very best ingredients as easy as possible. Each kit contains all the ingredients required, crushed malt, hops, style specific yeast and priming sugar. Plus, kettle finings, yeast nutrient and where applicable vegan finings. Full instructions for brewing beer from grain as well as a recipe specific brew sheet.

An Irish Style Red Ale which has a balanced character between malt, caramel and toffee notes and slight floral hop presence. Bitterness is balanced to allow for the malt character to shine through. A deep red/amber colour that if care is taken to clear the finished beer with appropriate finings, will be pin bright and alluring to drink.

2 reviews for Brew Day in a Box – Red Ale – All Grain Kit

  1. Alan Smylie (verified owner) –

    The description is perfect and the WHC LAX gives a very nice crisp clean finish. I may add a small dry hop addition next time but that’s just a personal choice. If you’re looking for a Red Ale, it’s a great place to start.

  2. ROBERT WILTSHIRE (verified owner) –

    I bought this kit as I have really been enjoying Red ales over last few years – When I think of what I have enjoyed previously its the fruity element , this doesn’t have that to be fair its exactly as described a deep rich colour that can be confused for a porter until you hold up to the light and the Red colour shines through. Malty rich flavour which i am really enjoying .. Looking forward to how this one matures.
